    my utmost gratitude to Jordan Peterson for graciously recording and uploading these lectures; I've just finished the whole course and feel a hell of a lot better about life than when I started; the ontology of human existence; the existential truths contained in mythology and their connection to human evolution; history as both empirical and symbolic; in sum, an understanding of where I've come from and to where I'm attempting to go. I'm 38 and just now realizing the purpose of university studies. Thank you, Jordan Peterson. It's a bit scary getting naked before the wind, so to speak, and dropping ideology; but, man, the feeling of truth, of freedom, is exhilarating at the same time. A very unique course, a very nuanced narrative of what it means to be human, combining just about all the elements of investigation you could want. Please continue, Jordan Peterson, putting up new versions of the same course. I'm guessing that the course continues to evolve over time.

    what I get most out of these lectures is that ancient myths and religions, are not just superstition as the atheists would have you believe, but necessary collective psychological lessons , rules, values or what have you for the " proper " functioning of the individual and then onto societies as a whole because of the many individuals that make up the societies halve to be taught just like everything else to the children who will grow and make up that society in the future.

    Regarding conscience. As a struggling young person 40 years ago, the realization hit me that I had two consciences. One - the voice of the internalized parent, and another, which was about a truth which was mine to live. This was perhaps the most important intuition of my life. A simplification of ideas discussed in the lecture but enormously helpful.

I'm guessing that a society can become so corrupt, materialistic, greedy and possessed by arrogance and the illusions of being "King" of the hill to the point that they will do anything at all to innocent human beings. And, now it is the US infiltrators, and government - Industrial, Military, are trying to break America and it appears all other nations along with the US. We have Man Men calling the shots.

    Disney didn't do Pinocchio at 60 fps :P probably more like 12-24. 24 was pretty standard, but many shots ended up being done "on twos" (every other frame - 12 fps) for the sake of time. But yeah, definitely still a colossal undertaking of cooperation...especially in 1940, when their tools just weren't as good. This was a fantastic dissection of a great piece of collaborative, cultural art. Thank you, Professor!

So much information, all his tangents and digressions always circle back to his main points... Incredible. I feel a little dumb that students in his class are so young and I'm here in mid thirties just starting to engage with these sorts of ideas. Very few wasted words. I wish I were as eloquent with expressing my thoughts. And the number of references, book recommendations and cross curriculum information. Jordan is on another level of intellect. We are so blessed to have access this kind of knowledge for free. I feel like I just took a semester of college education. A few days to recover then I will start over with the course from a different year =D And see how the course feels a second time around. I hope you all have a great journey on your path of self growth and discovery.

    Two ideas: 1) Find your purpose (the "what"). Find your north star -- a purpose that is "above the horizon" and creates a motivation that takes you beyond simply satisfying your day-to-day requirements. (JBP's Future Authoring program can help you do that, I think). Make it a priority to do things, even small things, that are in line with that larger purpose. If you feel the tug of motivation or interest in some particular direction, follow it and see where it leads. Interest is a precious gift, and often that little tug is the opening to a rabbit hole that can run very deep (kind of like error is the opening to a rabbit hole that leads to the Underworld). You may want to try a bunch of different things to discover what direction(s) might be fruitful. Volunteering, exploring the arts, reading philosophy, taking an online course, and so on are all good ways to expose yourself to new ideas. They also give you things to look forward to -- if you've enjoyed JBP's videos and looked forward to starting the next one after you finish each, you know exactly what I am talking about. 2) Attend to the process (the "how"). Reframe every interaction and every encounter you have as an opportunity to transmute chaos into order through dialogue -- in other words, to extract meaning from what is currently unknown to you. We humans are wired to be rewarded for satisfying certain drives -- hunger, thirst, and so on. One very powerful drive is the acquisition of information at the edge of our understanding (and that last bit is important -- not any old information, not crazy novel information, but information just at the edge of understanding is the most potent). Just like satiating hunger or thirst, satiating a desire for that kind of information is intrinsically rewarding. That's why people play stupid video games like Tetris and Freecell, in fact -- they are tricking a very powerful neurological system into rewarding them (giving them pleasure) without the payoff of actually extracting any new meaning (at least not any meaning that is of any real value). This is an empty kind of hedonism -- it's analogous to junk food which tricks the biology into providing pleasure without the nutritional reward that those pleasure circuits evolved to deliver. In short -- open, honest dialogue with other people that is authentically aiming at getting close to the Truth is a deeply rewarding process. Aristotle writes a whole chapter on this in one of his books. As a bonus, this process also makes you smarter, more confident, tougher, and better able to endure the suffering that characterizes human life. Good luck!

    I'm curious as to whether others will relate to this anecdote. When I saw Pinocchio as a child, I didn't quite understand much of what was happening. The first time I really understood the dialogs was when I first watched it as an adult last year. That coachman really scared me when he said "they never come back... AS BOYS!". At that point, my first thought was that something was going to go horribly wrong in a sexual way, and Disney had cleverly masked it from children as they usually do. I was glad that wasn't the case by the time Pinocchio escaped.

    Where he talks about Freudian slips, I know a Chinese masseuse who knows lots of subtle innuendo or often antiquated terms about giving a generous tip. she basically subtly throws people into a situation where they think THEY are initiating an idea. She subtly was trying to make me ask for (sexual) 'extras'. I declined, and she used subtle language to say "it's ok, because i make the money on tips, too." i mention this because English is not her first language. I'm British, with an unusual vocabulary range (old terms, etc due to Jamaican parents...and from studying English Lit) so i detect the double-meaning. It's soooooo subtle and without forced intonation, that I wonder how she even KNOWS such terms and...if other people notice.

    "You must be the change you wish to see in the world." Dirkma Hamandhi (trying to avoid paying for breakfast) :) I think if Jesus did really exist then he was spared the SJWs Jordan has to deal with. Jesus only had the Romans to deal with... Fortunately for Jordan and us he has encountered them, and so now so many more of us know of him and can learn from his wisdom. I have been watching looooooads of stuff! It's amazing. Like who is this guy? He's been around for years, has hundreds of videos and wow! I have watched thousands of youtube videos on many subjects, and have been thinking along very similar lines as Jordan for a while, and to find him, and him be so smart and switched on is so cool. Maybe I'm not that mad for agreeing with him on virtually everything. Yep... If you take out "god" and all the worship stuff Christianity is actually a pretty good way to live. To be honest, in the bible Jesus never really told people to worship all that much... If people would just read the Bible themselves, the bits with Jesus in it, and actually understand what he is saying then that's better advice than any self help book you can find. I think you could do that with most holy books... ...but no one does, because everyone knows there is no god... duh.

    Don't you think there was a reason Jesus told us to worship God? If you have listened to Jordan Peterson you know what people meant back then with God right? Not a man on a cloud, but a concept of sovereignty that's above humans. Humans will worship always, without exception, the question is what will they worship? Money? Intellect? Spirituality? Think about it before making superficial claims about religion or over generalizations about Christians. Focus on the individual, starting with yourself.

    Were the illustrators and writers aware of all the symbolism in Pinocchio. Is there a case to be made that some of this is JP extrapolating too much? What if JP is simply much more intelligent than the creators? Or even so would that mean that the creators subconsciously created a powerful archetype and the specifics dont matter so much?

    No, it is the simple fact that he has seen a pattern in mythology and human nature that has concordance. And, it is a challenge to compare generational intelligence with the era that demands a/the solution/s. But, I feel that the recognition of any pattern e.g. intelligent design is one person's attempt to piece together that which is unknown - it is unfortunate that JP might be confirming his biases by retro-fitting the pattern with his theory of implicit evolutionary truth in stories and forgetting the most fundamental component...we can never really know if we are right or not if we keep allowing a subjective opinion become an objective fact. Nonetheless, like they say in Texas: "Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story".

    +Michael Randell - xitzprofessor It was written by Collodi. Pinocchio is pretty much a traditional epic hero - he descent into the underworld (like odysseus does) undergoes a transformational experience and is reborn. It´s the longest (inner) journey. I think it was Kant said that aesthetics purpose is to train our ability to manifest our free will. Pinocchio represents the journey to become an autonomous human being.

    +Michael Randell - xitzprofessor It`s very unlikely that Jordan has the excact same interprentation that the authors did, unless he`s a mind reader. It`s the age old question if great litterature can be paragraphed. To a certain extent it can, but great art is a phenomena richer than the language it is written in. So we can never explain it fully in ordinary language, and there will always be different interpretations, dependent on your own perspective - like literary competence and other external disciplines like psychology. Great art is always ambiguous, it got a richness in meaning that goes beyond our ordinary use of language. Besides when Nietczhe proclaimed the death of God, the author also died. Meaning that the author is not a guarantor of a works true inherent meaning. This is cause language does not belong to anyone, it does not belong to the author - it is collective. Great litterature accomplish to delve deep into the collective underpinnings of language. Another property of great art is that it does not oversimplify itself, I think Pinocchio does this mistake with it`s moralizing statements. Art is supposed to have a degree of distance and objectivity, so to be able to overcome personal or collective opinions, it should not be ideological.

    1: I do, that´s a astute observation. 2: No, not really - why would you imagine such a thing? 3: I think the reason for your anger is that you´v idolized Jordan B. Peterson. Maybe you realized that he outright beat you in the knowledge and wisdom game, and so that you will not have to compete with him you idolize him, you became a member of the genius cult that believe some people are geniuses above rest of humanity. This is a way of self preservation - who wants to compete with Einstein? it´s easier to just call them geniuses. So ... I think what i wrote made a lot sense to you (I know, very narcissistic ain´t it?). Since you are a member of the genius cult a random youtube commenter can´t do that, it´s blasphemy. Why? cause it challenges your thesis that Jordan is a genius above rest of humanity. And anything that challenges that idea, directly challenges you on how confident you feel about your own abilities. So, what do you think?

    Rince wind I think my statement is correct and you got ass ache from it, tough shit. And the anger though you try to hide with your veneer of civility that all P C libtards use is all on your part. Where in my statement did I even hint at anger. I just pointed out that your are not the intellect that you try desperately to portray.

    Hello professor, My cousin and I were chatting online, and the topic of her dreams came about. She's 26, recently married, and is a high-functioning autistic individual -- in case any of that's relevant. Anyway, she said some things that I found somewhat concerning and I was hoping you might have some insight: "...I have, as far as I can remember, always dreamt in third-person (meaning I see myself in my dream; like watching a movie). Last night I had my first first-person dream (I was seeing through my dream-body's eyes). It was very weird. I kept switching from third and first-person (like my brain knew the first-person point of view wasn't right). Another strange thing, is that usually my dreams are quite lucid and I feel physical reactions (such as touch and taste), but in this dream (being within my dreaming self and not as a watcher) I felt nothing. I only had the sense of sound and sight. Very weird. Also, while in first-person, I had no control of my dream and would become frustrated and forget that I am dreaming (switching back to third-person I had some control and knew I was dreaming)..." The tendency to dream from the third-person perspective seems unusual, and more unusual still that she would be averse to first-person dreaming. Should I be worried or is this just not enough information to say one way or the other? I have gotten a lot out of this series by the way. Thanks for making these publicly available!

    Hello Professor, With regards to free will, how can you explain that there is something inside of us that is beyond the influence of nature and nurture? To me it seems obvious that since we don't actually choose the person that we are in the given moment and the situation that we're in, we don't have any higher power to work above these forces. I don't think this is only a scientific point of view... What about Buddhism where the self as a separate entity is regarded as an illusion and causality plays an integral part of the philosophy? Understanding that people are less in control than we think they are would create a more compassionate and useful attitude towards people's mistakes.

    I must have viewed Pinocchio a hundred times when I was around 5 years old, so I appreciate the analysis. lol I just looked into the original novel for the first time. It is fascinating. The story seems significant in relation to technology. I wonder what Prof. Peterson would say about the film, “A.I.” Did you notice that the AI antagonist, Ultron, sings “I’ve Got No Strings” in the new Avengers movie? lol The Disney symbolism is probably intentional, as many of the producers were high-ranking Freemasons. lol Check out this hilarious cartoon from Fleischer studios, Bimbo's Initiation: kzread.info/dash/bejne/mamVmZOCkZrYcbg.html

    By transcending and moving between the many hierarchies, we can achieve the greatest good and hopefully find God. The protagonists can be the gods or super humans (that is, Nietzsche’s Baby, after the Camel and Lion). We intermingle in a difficult way, traversing versions of Hell or Underworld to find Heaven and the Almighty God’s good. We have to believe and trust that God’s good will prevail over evil. If Satan prevailed on the average, surely no Life or Love could exist. Let’s hope that most malevolence in the 21st century has become latent and well inculcated compared to the atrocities of the last two centuries.

    Jordan? Are you there? Could this really be a way that it's actually possible to talk with you here? For some reason I feel like you might respond if I post here. Anyway, like many I have recently fallen in love with you via your dealings with the SJWs. Thank you for that. To me what you are fighting is part of something else much bigger and more "evil" than just that ... I think you know that. ...anyways... I was wondering... In those talks your opponents sometimes claim that there are more than two sexes and you do not agree. However, in nature some animals do change sex eg en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_change#In_animals I was wondering what you thought about that? ..anyway, not sure if you will ever read this. I just finished watching the whole series. Now to watch it all again straight away... :) Thank you.
